Because we love knowledge check out the following:The original knife was invented in the 1930s by Sundel Doniger, a Jewish Polish immigrant to the United States. He started a medical supply company in 1917 producing medical syringes and scalpels with removable blades.This would later be his inspiration for the X-Acto brand of knives.He had planned to sell it to surgeons as ascalpelbut it was not acceptable, because it could not be cleaned. His brother-in-law, Daniel Glück (father of poet and 2020Nobel Prize in LiteraturelaureateLouise Glück), suggested that it might be a good craft tool.

In 1930, a house designer asked Doniger if he could create something for him that would help him crop some advertisements, Doniger agreed and created what is now known as the X-Acto Knife
